Project Overview
This project was all about perspective. For my project idea I took something I know a lot about and want a future in, and connected it to the part that is unseen and not cared about. I did a lot of research and afterward I made an Instagram account talking about my opinions and the research that I had done. I talked about a lot of the things that happen in "Sneaker Culture." I talked about how people express themselves and they do it by getting a certain pair of shoes, or they customize them by themself. It represents their race, culture, where they are from, and many other things. That is why "Sneaker Culture will always remain very important to people. I loved this project because it taught me so much more about the political history of shoes, so now I know how to do different things with them.

English |
I had Global in my project because I had to show the different perspectives on shoes between America and China. This was the main part of my project because I had to think through about how I'm going to do different research.

This was a huge part of my project because I had to do my annotated bibliography. Also, my research was supposed to be in the right way. My English was very important to my project because without the English I would not be able to implement history into my project. For example, the Instagram page was very important to me.

Art
My art in this project is pretty big time. Shoes are a piece of art and that is all I have been researching on and how Americans think of the art compared to how Chinese think of the art. You can express yourself in art, people express by the shoes they wear and they make, so the shoes are a piece of art and we should be appreciating art. But, we do not. Chinese laborers are slaves and that is what I talk about on my instagram posts as well.
